The way she screams as she continues to argue with her husband after the door closes is exactly the sounds no one would ever want to hear coming from another apartment but is absolutely brilliant here.
This is what I call classic comedy they don't make them like this anymore I wanna thank my dad for showing me this gem of a film one of my favorite movies
This scene has me laughing so hard every time I see it. The woman's face never stops moving. She was such a good choice for that role. And with all the cold cream on her face.
This would have to rate as one of my favourites scenes out of ALL the movies I’ve ever seen!! Bloody hysterical & the choice of actress for this role couldn’t have been better!! It NEVER gets old & always gives me a huge laugh!! 😂😂
To this day, one of the funniest scenes in movie history, is Perry, his wife, and Arthur. Every line of dialogue.... is comedy gold. As the ultimate Karen, Perry’s wife walked so others could run.
Very few actors can take literally one minute of screen time and absolutely steal it! Helen Hanft- character actor extraordinaire! She had one line in "Coming to America" and performed it like a boss. My other favorite is Lee Fierro, who played Mrs. Kitner in Jaws. The grief, outrage and sadness she portrayed when confronting Chief Brody (Roy Scheider) is an unforgettable scene in cinematic history. RIP to these two amazing actors whose work enriched my life.
She had a line in Coming to America?! One of my favorite movies, seen it many times, but I can't place her in the movie, please tell me her role and what scene she appears in! Edit: Never mind I just found it - the lady on the subway near the end of the movie! She was also the clerk at the driver license center in License to Drive, a truly underrated comedy! If you haven't seen that, by all means! Some guy uploaded the whole movie in 32 parts on UA-cam!

Did you know Several decades after the filming of Jaws (1975), Lee Fierro, who plays Mrs. Kintner, walked into a seafood restaurant and noticed that the menu had an "Alex Kintner Sandwich". She commented that she had played his mother so many years ago. The owner of the restaurant ran out to meet her - none other than Jeffrey Voorhees, who had played her son. They had not seen each other since the original movie shoot.
Hard to single out a oomic standout in such a classic comedy as this, but this is a great example of comic synergy with these three. More talent and comedy in this short scene than most any other recent or current movie.
But you left out the best part…Arthur staggers out to his car, picks up the drink he left on the fender, raises his glass and says, “Perry, you’re a dead man.”
Hi jbeir, This is wonderful! Love this film, and whenever I need a laugh I'll be coming here! Also will be forwarding to many friends. Thanks so much for posting. Best regards, varadero
Looked to see if Perry was still alive. But there are multiple John Bentley's on IMDb. However, Perry's wife was played by Helen Hanft. She passed away in 2013 ❤
Doesn’t get any better than this. Such classic comedy. No one for their feelings hurt or were offended. I remember the second Arthur came out and bombed because drunk driving wasn’t supposed to be funny.
Which part-the woman portrayed as a hysterical banshee, Arthur telling Perry to "give her a shot!" or Arthur putting his fists up in self-defense! 0:47 I can tell you this much. Back when IMDB still had its message boards, commenters on there who were outraged at Arthur drunk-driving down the highway. One person wrote, "Alcoholism isn't FUNNY!" I remember that because I so badly wanted to write back, "yeah it is!"
We had a tenant just like her in one of the apts my property management company manages, she was the mosted hated person in the complex. After she was evicted the whole complex threw a party knowing she'll never be back.
Perry: What can I do? Don Corelone: You can act like a man! What's the matter with you? "What can I do?! What can I do?!" What is that nonsense? Ridiculous.
Do we have to politicize every fucking thing? Shit like this takes the fun out of everything. Instead how about honoring the tremendous screen presence and craftsmanship of Helen Hanft. This scene brings me great joy and laughter. I won't let your comment ruin it. Grow up.

"WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?!?!"
"Oh SHIT!"
😂😂😂😂😂😂

This was one of my favorite scenes in the movie lol!
Mine too! 😂
This scene has me laughing so hard every time I see it. The woman's face never stops moving. She was such a good choice for that role. And with all the cold cream on her face.
A true gem of a scene and actors!
This is my favorite scene. 🤣🤣🤣
LOL nailed it 😂
The first Karen, before we had Karen’s.
Perry’s wife walked, so others could fly.
That's so hilarious 🤣 like when Arthur toasts to Perry and calls him a dead man 🤣
The actress was Helen Hanft, 1934-2013, and she was brilliant in everything she did. She just KILLED this role as "Perry's wife."
Thanks for the info. I'm going to research her. Brilliant actress.
She’s great but don’t you hate Perry’s wife?
She probably KILLED Perry as well.
Well, i never gave it much thought, but she inspired me to stay single. 🙂@@alanmiley100
Me and my friends act out this scene all the time. Never gets old.. "Get in there Perry"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
❤give her a shot!!!
That is so freaking HILARIOUS!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Perry, you're a dead man..."
For all I know, he shot it while you screamed!
🤣😂🤣
This movie has so many brilliant cameos. Another being the drunk at the bar ! Fantastic movie
Who was in the cameo playing that drunk?
How the drunk kept saying "That's terrible"😂😊
This would have to rate as one of my favourites scenes out of ALL the movies I’ve ever seen!! Bloody hysterical & the choice of actress for this role couldn’t have been better!! It NEVER gets old & always gives me a huge laugh!! 😂😂
Poor Perry. Now there is a guy you've got to feel sorry for.
Every guy has a guy friend like Perry. Sucks man
To this day, one of the funniest scenes in movie history, is Perry, his wife, and Arthur.

😂😂 he said get in there and give a her a shot jeezus Christ.. LMAO
Don't ya just hate Perry's wife?
you shouldn't be hearing this...
a classic line re-said over and over by me over the years. lol
@@firebugjohnnypyro same! My sisters and I, along with our husbands have quoted this many, many times since then!
Ha! So great....I miss Dudley. He suffered so much after his brilliant life
🤣🤣🤣...he asks Linda's father when gets to their apartment. 🤣🤣🤣

"Perry, you're a dead man!"
Lmfao!! One of my favorite movie scenes ever!!!
Get in their Perry get in their Perry!😂
This is how to answer the door when the Jehovah's witnesses come!
This is just great. Who am I talking to? Oh, it's me, it's me...
This movie is a classic.
My favourite scene in the whole movie lol. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!! Give her a shot, JC!! It's you against her Perry!!!!
"My husband has a gun!" Helen could sure deliver a line!!
Get in there Perry and its a gonner are lines used daily in my family for the past 40 odd years 😂
This is one of the funniest scenes in a movie!
She’s brilliant in this role
The next scene when he says "Don't ya hate Perry's wife?" fucking kills me over and over, LOLOL.
Best scene 🤣🤣
I always open my door like this whenever someone comes over. It minimizes annoying house guests!
"Don't you hate Perry's wife?"
RIP Perry..............she killed him after all
Did John Bentley die?
But you left out the best part…Arthur staggers out to his car, picks up the drink he left on the fender, raises his glass and says, “Perry, you’re a dead man.”
"YOU TOLD A TOTAL STRANGER THAT WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO HE IS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"
"He looks ok.."
Poor Perry! 😂
I love Perry’s wife!

Don't you just hate Perry's wife? XD lol
Arthur , advocating spousal abuse - lol - GIVE HER A SHOW JESUS CHRIST
Lmfao!! Always a classic! 🤣🤣🤣
This part had me dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He looks ok……..
Perry’s wife needed more screen time. She was classic. 😂
Don't you mean scream time ?
@@psychedelicelvis-777 Lol 😆

lol Arthur:That`s horrible. XD
*HHARRABLE*
Doesn’t get any better than this. Such classic comedy. No one for their feelings hurt or were offended. I remember the second Arthur came out and bombed because drunk driving wasn’t supposed to be funny.
"He looks okay."
"What can I do"?
...another good line from the movie:
Dinner date: "A REAL woman could stop you from drinking"
Arthur: "It would have to be a real BIG woman".😒
“For all I know he could have shot it while you were screaming”😂
This scene was so well put together. Unfortunately, it would not be allowed in today’s “Cancel Culture”.
Which part-the woman portrayed as a hysterical banshee, Arthur telling Perry to "give her a shot!" or Arthur putting his fists up in self-defense! 0:47

Everybody hates Perry's wife. I know, cause I ask every new person I meet.
my neighbors every day.
She probably had those curlers in her hair since 1955.
My Husband has a gun...
Arthur should have said "Really? Does he have a permit for it in the state of New York??" "He better or he's up shit creek without a paddle".
Bigtime1998.... (Arthur:) "For all I know he shot it while you screamed..." LMAO!
We had a tenant just like her in one of the apts my property management company manages, she was the mosted hated person in the complex. After she was evicted the whole complex threw a party knowing she'll never be back.
The husbands name is Perry but Dudley Moore is calling him Fairy because he's not standing up to himself
The American Andy Capp
Arthur is my favorite member of Def Leppard
Omg it's me!
I wish I could understand the dialogue after the door slams.
I'd bet that dialogue after the door slams was meant to be inconprehensible, to empahsize her yelling as manic gibberish.
My husband has a😂
lol she’s a scene stealer, hilarious
0:12 .......jeez, some people NEED ludes.
Don't you hate Perry's Wife LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In my opinion, I believe that Perry's wife treated him badly. This scene makes me laugh.
Oh Man
My mom lmao ..
This is why I never want to get married. I couldn't live with a woman like that
Don't you hate Perry's wife?
Perry: What can I do?
Don Corelone: You can act like a man! What's the matter with you? "What can I do?! What can I do?!" What is that nonsense? Ridiculous.
Gahhh... shit.. !
He shot it while you scream
